Chapter 194

Feeling resigned, I simply nodded and pretended to go along with him. “Okay.”

“Stephie… I’m not mad at you,” Steven suddenly said.

“You forgot about me, but I’m not blaming you,” he spoke again.

For some reason, tears welled up in my eyes.

I couldn’t hold them back, and I didn’t even know why I was crying.

“Stephie… Please don’t cry.” Steven awkwardly wiped away my tears and pulled me into

his embrace. “Stephie, it’s all in the past now. Can you give me another chance?”

“Steven, I’ll get to know you again,” I whispered.

“Alright,” he said, sounding pleased.

It seemed like things were finally getting better. Everything was going to be alright.

I nodded.
